Set the Scene: The Venue of Your Dreams

First things first: pick a venue that embodies your event’s personality. Capitol Hill offers a treasure trove of options, but if you’re after intimate, cozy spaces that feel both elevated and approachable, Harry’s has you covered. Picture this: sunlit tables set with bistro-style charm, the clink of glasses filled with seasonal spritzes, and a backdrop of good vibes.

Our spaces are designed for connection—perfect for brunches, small gatherings, or medium-sized celebrations. Bonus points for being centrally located, so your guests won’t have to endure a parking scavenger hunt. Harry’s venues offer accessibility and charm, ensuring all the focus stays on what really matters: making memories.

The Menu: Brunch Catering That Steals the Show

Here’s the truth: food is the heart of any successful event, and brunch is our love language. At Harry’s, we elevate classic favorites with seasonal twists and bold flavors. Think colorful fruit platters, flaky pastries, and crave-worthy savory bites. Of course, avocado toast gets its moment to shine—but don’t sleep on our signature creations that are bound to become conversation starters.

Drinks? Oh, darling, we don’t do basic. Mimosas may be a staple, but our catering goes the extra mile with curated cocktails, fresh mocktails, and coffee that hits just right. Whether your guests are here for the bubbly or a perfectly brewed pour-over, our offerings keep the energy lively and the chatter flowing.

Décor: The Details That Make It Yours

Let’s talk aesthetics. Harry’s events embrace the Capitol Hill vibe: effortlessly cool with personal touches that make your gathering unique. Imagine tables adorned with lush florals, vibrant linens, and whimsical centerpieces that feel fresh yet understated. Our team loves working with hosts to bring their vision to life, whether that’s a sleek and modern affair or a cozy and nostalgic brunch spread.

Pro tip: Add a few local details, like hand-lettered name cards or décor inspired by Seattle’s iconic landmarks. It’s those thoughtful touches that turn a gathering into an experience your guests will remember long after the last plate is cleared.

Activities: Keep the Energy Up

A great event isn’t just about food and décor—it’s about the vibe. Keep your guests engaged with fun, interactive activities. A DIY cocktail station or build-your-own waffle bar gets people mingling and adds a playful touch to the day. For outdoor gatherings, lawn games like cornhole or oversized Jenga keep the energy light and the laughter flowing.

Want to go big? Set up a photo booth with quirky props that nod to Capitol Hill’s eclectic spirit. It’s the perfect way to capture memories and spark connections—because nothing bonds people like a hilarious group photo.

Inclusivity: The Heart of Every Harry’s Event

At Harry’s, we believe inclusivity isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the foundation of every great gathering. From menu options that cater to all dietary needs to spaces designed with accessibility in mind, we prioritize making every guest feel welcome. Want to spark connections? Icebreakers or fun trivia about your guests can add a personal touch that gets everyone talking. The best events create a sense of community that lingers long after the plates are cleared.

The Importance of Follow-Up: Keeping the Connections Alive

The magic doesn’t end when the last mimosa is poured. Send your guests off with sweet memories by sharing event photos or a heartfelt thank-you note. At Harry’s, we can even help you plan your next gathering, whether it’s a casual happy hour or another round of brunch. Building community one event at a time? That’s our jam.
